Minimum Accounting Options Configuration

To enable accounting options on the router, you must perform at least the following tasks:

• Configure accounting options by including a file statement and one or more source-class-usage, destination-class-profile, filter-profile, interface-profile, or routing-engine-profile statements at the [edit accounting-options] hierarchy level:

[edit]

accounting-options {

    class-usage-profile profile-name {

        file filename;

        interval minutes;

        source-classes {

            source-class-name;

        destination-classes {

            destination-class-name;

        }

    }

    file filename { 

        archive-sites {

            site-name;

        }

        files filenumber; 

        size bytes;

        transfer-interval minutes;

    }

    filter-profile profile-name { 

        counters { 

            counter-name;

        }

        file filename;

        interval minutes;

    }

    interface-profile profile-name { 

        fields {  

            field-name;

        }

        file filename;

        interval minutes;

    }

    routing-engine-profile profile-name {

        fields {

            field-name;

        }

        file filename;

        interval minutes;

    }

}

• Apply the profiles to the chosen interfaces or filters.

Apply an interface profile to a physical or logical interface by including the accounting-profile statement at either the [edit interfaces interface-name] or the [edit interfaces interface-name unit number] hierarchy level. For more information on interface profiles, see the JUNOS Network Interfaces and Class of Service Configuration Guide.

[edit interfaces]

interface-name {

    accounting-profile profile-name;

    unit number {

        accounting-profile profile-name;

    }

}

   
NOTE: You do not apply destination class profiles to interfaces. Although the interface needs to have the destination-class-usage statement configured, the destination class profile automatically finds all interfaces with the destination class configured. 


 

Apply a filter profile to a firewall filter by including the accounting-profile statement at the [edit firewall filter filter-name] hierarchy level:

[edit firewall]

filter filter-name {

    accounting-profile profile-name; 

}

You do not need to apply the Routing Engine profile to an interface because the statistics are collected on the Routing Engine itself.
